Mission "Knightly Dealings" debrief

The mission Knightly Dealings was tentatively a success, but only in the sense the pilots succeeded in defeating the people we set out to.  Otherwise, it was a failure, capstoned by the loss of one of our own.

The mission log can be read here and here.

Important Notes:
- Frank Symes suffered fatal injuries while in the line of duty, defending Laura Ericks and his fellow comrades before ultimately succumbing to them.
- The group thought to be the Thoughts of Ascension led by Albion was revealed to be a splinter group by the main group's leader: Roger Dantoinne.
- On a related subject, the SE control crystal was delivered to Roger by Laura following the activation of a trigger phrase.  The programming was only deep enough for a single command though, and Ayame and Maxene have assured everyone that on further psychological screening there are no other commands waiting to be triggered.
- Dr. Jul has made it abundantly clear that he wishes to have Tatsu and the Fury Mk. III.  However, the Fury's also been shown to be immune to the AI corruption virus that Jul's used in the past thanks to the Imprinting Program.

Damages:
- The Reinheit was severely damaged and in fact nearly punched in half, as well as losing its head and taking severe damage to its arm.  It'll take the mechanics roughly sixteen days to fully repair it.
- Desu Itsuki suffered some damage to its body and severely drained its reactor, with the more sensitive and fragile systems on the machine ruined.  It will be repaired in approximately six days.
- The Fury Mk. III has similarly been torn up, most notably its head and legs, along with some of the internal systems.  It will be repaired in another thirteen days.
- The Ymir's shields have been pierced, warped, and smashed, and the machine itself has suffered a few hard knocks and will require two days to repair.  The Jotunn went by with less harm, but still had some systems damaged by Sage's screams and will require another day to get them repaired.
- Devon was stabbed by Quicksilver, although nonfatally  She's already been healed for the most part by Laura, and will be fine in another day or two.
- Everyone might have some freaky nightmares due to Sage's screams in the immediate future.  How badly it shakes anyone up probably depends on how desensitized to that sort of thing.  Azrad took the worst of it though, and no matter how familiar he might be with eldritch monstrosities his sense of balance is still going to be messed up and he could probably do well to take it easy for a few days.
